Don’t just take my word for it. 🌈 Listen to what these happy developers are saying about Eleventy:

“Just got through moving a project to Eleventy. Never used nunjucks or a static site generator before, but it was so easy. This will make my life so much easier.” Micah Mills’s Twitter PhotoMicah Mills

“I tried Eleventy last night on a personal project and today we implemented it on a (non-public facing) client project. It's really good.” Cody Peterson’s Twitter PhotoCody Peterson

“Eleventy is my fave.” Tatiana Mac’s Twitter PhotoTatiana Mac

“Think the reason everyone is loving [Eleventy] so much (myself included) is that it doesn't come with a prescription about data sources or template rendering.” Brian Leroux’s Twitter PhotoBrian Leroux

“I heard Eleventy was good” Lach Zeatherman’s Twitter PhotoLach Zeatherman

“Seriously can't remember enjoying using a Static Site Generator this much. Yes Hugo is rapid, but this is all so logical. It feels like it was designed by someone who has been through lots of pain and success using other SSGs.” Phil Hawksworth’s Twitter PhotoPhil Hawksworth

“Eleventy is almost fascinatingly simple.” Chris Coyier’s Twitter PhotoChris Coyier

“Don’t tell Zach I said it but Eleventy is seeming fresh as hell so far” Mat Marquis’s Twitter PhotoMat Marquis

“Eleventy is a killer static site generator. That’s all.” Sara Soueidan’s Twitter PhotoSara Soueidan

“After a day or so tweaking my existing build, here is a preview of the site running on Eleventy. I'm sold! The main thing to me was the ability to run custom JavaScript logic to sort, filter, and augment data in collections.” Eduardo Bouças’s Twitter PhotoEduardo Bouças

“Just gave Eleventy a first run/try and I must say it's pretty dang awesome. Especially for someone like me, who is most familiar with HTML and CSS and some JS. ❤️” Marco Hengstenberg’s Twitter PhotoMarco Hengstenberg

“Eleventy is absolutely wonderful. It’s by far the nicest static site generator I’ve used in what feels like forever.” Addy Osmani’s Twitter PhotoAddy Osmani

“Just the kind of simple / common sense tool I love. The data/folder hierarchy mechanism is super obvious and elegant.” Heydon Pickering’s Twitter PhotoHeydon Pickering

“It's clean, elegant, easy to use, and does just enough to be useful without getting in the way. Excellent work 😊” Timothy Miller’s Twitter PhotoTimothy Miller
